About the collection: ‘The Matte Lip is here to stay. Create a standout look with the fashion-forward new shades of our iconic matte lipstick. Vibrant hues like fuchsia Velvet Violet and La Vie En Rouge are a bold contrast to the rich burgundy of Fashion Revival and nude of Styled in Sepia. For the best in colour intensity, Pro Longwear Lip Pencils in super-saturated shades to make a modern statement. Go for the cool rouge of Trust in Red or boost it up with new Bespoken For, a dark, creamy plum. For a polished finish, accent with the soft, pinky hues of Pro Longwear Blush – long-lasting colour that’s purely fabulous. ‘

Shade- Nouvelle Vogue is described as a ‘soft blue pink’. I would call it a medium pink with warmer blue undertones. The shade is a mix of MAC Mehr and MAC Pink Plaid.

Packaging-The packaging is similar to regular MAC permanent line lipsticks having a black matte outer cover with shade name and finish mentioned below.

Texture & Formula- The lipstick has a matte finish as with regard to the collection however it isn’t like Ruby Woo having powder matte finish. The lipstick is definitely creamy and glides on easily providing semi-matte lipstick which soon settles to a matte finish. It is light weight and feels comfortable on lips. The formula isn’t hydrating nor over-drying. It has vanilla fragrance reminiscent to all MAC lip products.

Pigmentation- The lipstick is gorgeously pigmented and one swipe provides decent amount of coverage. This shade will definitely highlight the skin undertone so proper base is needed. It will cover lip pigmentation in 1-2 swipes.

Staying Power- Nouvelle Vogue has a good wear time for about 6-7 hours fading evenly. Even after it wears off, a slight muted pink stain stays on lips that also look very nice.

Overall Thoughts

I have always loved MAC matte finish and this lipstick is another addition to my favourites. The formula, feel and finish is amazing. It is a decent shade that needs a bit of work to add to its beauty. However, the staying power is fabulous. It us a great shade. I think the shade will suit medium-fair skinned toned girls more. However, the rest of the shades in the collection are bright and worth trying.

Rating- 4.25/5
